Milestones:
SB6000
South
Beyond 6000 is not an organized club as such, but rather an
achievement. The privilege of belonging is earned by
climbing 40 of the highest and most outstanding peaks in the
Southern United States.
All of the
highest peaks in the Eastern United States are in the Southern
Appalachians -- specifically in western North Carolina and
eastern Tennessee (Mt. Washington, the 17th highest peak in the
Eastern United States, is in New Hampshire).
The
South Beyond 6000 program is jointly sponsored the Carolina
Mountain Club and the Tennessee Eastman Hiking and Canoeing
Club. Detailed information about the South Beyond 6000
program is stored on the Carolina Mountain Club's web site.
Hikes listed on TEHCC’s schedule with the prefix SB6000
are members’ hikes toward achieving this milestone.
